Visual Summary

Brief Description

A standing figure in a red robe and turban, holding a small cup and a stringed instrument

Detailed Description

The image displays a single standing figure painted on a vertical rectangular panel with a mottled, faded brown and orange background. The figure, facing forward with a slight turn to the right, occupies most of the panel's height. The head is topped with a large, dark brown turban with lighter brown folds. The face is light-skinned with dark, arched eyebrows, almond-shaped eyes, a small nose, and a small mouth. Dark hair is visible at the sides of the face. The figure wears a long, flowing red robe that extends to the ankles. A dark, possibly black, undergarment is visible at the neck. A dark gray or black cloak is draped over the shoulders, extending down the back. The robe has a row of three dark buttons down the front of the chest. Around the waist, a wide, dark belt with a textured pattern is visible. In the figure's left hand, held at chest level, is a small, light-colored cup or bowl. The right hand holds a long, thin, light-colored stick-like object that extends downwards to a round, light-colored stringed instrument with a dark, star-like design on its body. The instrument hangs at waist level. The figure's feet are mostly covered by the robe, with only a dark shoe visible on the right foot. The surface of the painting shows visible wear and fading.
